ADJUSTABLE GOLF-TEE BOARD.-

Application filed October 9, 1915. Serial No. 55,089.

0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, Mosn FUCHS, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Baker, in the county of Baker and State of Oregon, have invented a new and Improved Adjustable Golf-Tee Board, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

An object of my invention is to provide a golf-tee board having tee elements movable to provide separate individual tees either of which may be positioned for use, and thus provide a tee at different elevations above the board to meet the ideas of individual players.

A further object of the invention is to provide a revolubly mounted golf tee, whereby the tee will yield and turn in the direction of a blow delivered against the ball in driving the ball from the tee.

The invention will be particularly ex-' plained in the following description of the preferred embodiment as illustrated.

. Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a partof this specification in which similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts in all the views.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a golftee board-embodying my invention; Fig. 2 is a partial plan view; and Fig. 3 is a partial longitudinal vertical section.

In carrying out my invention in practice, in accordance with the illustrated embodiment, a board 10 of suitable dimensions is provided and a golf tee, designated generally by the numeral 11, revolubly mounted on the board in a vertical slot or opening 12, therein, to turn in the vertical plane, a transverse pin 14, or the like serving as the axis.

The body 13, of the tee is preferably'in the form of a disk through which the pin von the board to turn in. a vertical plane,

14, passes at the center. On the said disk at the periphery at intervals therearound, radially disposed individual tees are formed indicated respectively by the numerals 15', 16, 17, there being three such individual tees in the present instance. The ends of the individual tees present faces transverse to the plane of rotation either of which seats is adapted to receive a golf ball A when a particular individual tee is positioned at the v top of the board 10.

The individual tees project varying distances from the axis of rotation so that Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Feb, 29, 1916,

the ball may be supported at difierent elevations above the board 10, as may be-desired by the individual player. It will be seen that when the ball A is driven from either one of the individual tees, 15, 16, 17,

' the tee as a whole will yield and turn in the jury by persons walking over the field since it will yield and turn upon a foot contacting therewith and therefore will be less liable to be crushed.

It will be seen that a single tee board provides a variety of tees to suit-thefwishes of individual players and in a manner to. enable a particular tee to be instantly positioned for use.

Having thus described. my invention 1 claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patenti I 1. A golf tee mounted to turn and having seats thereon for a golf ball, the seats be-' ing disposed at different distances from the axis of the tee.

2. A golf-tee boardand a tee revolubly mounted on theboard .and having seats for a golf ball at the edge of the tee at different distances from the axis.

3. A golf-tee board having a depression in its upper surface'and a tee mounted to turn in the said depression in approximately a vertical plane, said tee having a plurality sition either seat projecting above the top of the board.

4. A golf-tee board and a tee mounted said tee including a plurality of radially disposed individual tees projecting at different distances from the axis.

' In-testimony-whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

MOSE FUCHS.
